The further away from the mid-ocean ridge, the older the rocks are on the ocean floor. Therefore, the ocean floor feature that would contain the newest rocks would be the mid-ocean ridge.

Answer: Mid-ocean ridge

A mid-ocean ridge is an underwater mountain landmass generated after the plate tectonics. It forms when the ocean floor is uplifted by the magma generated by the rise of convection current during the divergent plate tectonics. The rocks generated by this process is due to the solidification of the lava after underwater volcanic eruption. Therefore, mid-ocean ridge likely to form new rocks in the oceanic bed.

PLEASE HELP!!! WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE!

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

a. slope=rise/run

rise=0.02

run=-2

determined using the point (3,0.08) and (1,0.1) on the graph

slope=0.02/-2

= -0.01 or -1/100

b.area= area of trapizoid+ rectangle

((0.07+0.11)÷2)×4+1×0.07

0.36+0.07

=0.43$

c. the area represent the total cost after 5 hours

In a hydroelectric power plant, water flows from an elevation of 400 ft to a turbine, where electric power is generated. For an

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

$V=3.475ft^3/s=3.48ft^3/s$

Explanation:

We have here values from SI and English Units. I will convert the units to English Units.

We hace for the power P,

$P= 100kW \rightarrow 100kW*(\frac{737.56ft.lbf/s}{1kW})$

$P= 73.7*10^{3}ft.lbf/s$

we have other values such $h=400ft$ and $\gamma= 62.42lb/ft^3$ (specific weight of the water), and 0.85 for \eta

We need to figure the flow rate of the water (V) out, that is,

$V=\frac{P}{\gamma h \eta_0}$

Where $\eta_0$ is the turbine efficiency, at which is,

$\eta_0 = \frac{P}{\gamma Vh}$

Replacing,

$V=\frac{73.7*10^{3}}{62.42*400*0.85}$

$V=3.475ft^3/s$

With this value (the target of this question) we can also calculate the mass flow rate of the waters,

through the density and the flow rate,

$m=\rho V\\m= 3.475*1.94 \\m=6.7415 slugs/s$

converting the slugs to lbm, 1slug = 32.174lbm, we have that the mass flow rate of the water is,

$m= 217lbm/s$
